All the pieces of your next brilliant idea may be all around you at this very moment. All you need to do is to combine them in a meaningful way. This idea generator can be used in countless ways. It will allow you to quickly synthesize the components of design in ways you never imagined before.
Here I have applied the idea generator to combine canework techniques (listed on the inside circle) with various uses for cane slices. (listed on the outside circle). Each time I rotate the spinner, I read twelve new combinations. I could also use this for color schemes, bead shapes and jewelry patterns, themes and projects etc. This post shows how I used the idea generator as a creativity prompt with my elementary art students.
Just so that I can brag, here are some of the examples made with faux wood inlay canes.
Wow. Stunning pieces. Love it!
Thank you!!!
You do such fantabulous work!!!! Every piece you make is gorgeous. 🙂
You need to have the faux wood as one of you tutorials. They look great.
It’s in my etsy shop 🙂 Did you see the link? It doesn’t show how to make the projects, just the canes.
